The journal publishes state-of-the-art reviews and original work in basic and clinical research covering the broad area of thrombosis & hemostasis and vascular biology & vascular medicine, including translational research.

Scope & Publication Formats
The focus of the journal is on congenital and acquired hemorrhagic and thromboembolic disorders, their diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. In addition to reviews or original communications, categories include highlight articles and commentaries on hot topics, brief illustrated case studies (images in thrombosis & haemostasis), guideline & GTH position papers, reports of GTH working groups, case reports, letters to the editor, announcements, and GTH news.
